Well, that is the way it is now. You choose, you face the consequences, if any......because there may not be a god, and if there is, no one on this earth knows what he thinks about abortion.

But the pro-lifer's are not happy with that. They want to choose. They want to judge. They want to decide the consequences. They want to be the god.

If she does, she gets it for "mental health reasons".

Your opinion may matter more than a man's, but it still doesn't trump the opinion of another woman.

Wow, your post expressed misogyny so palpable that I though you were a woman hating man.
I'm not used to women hating women with different opinions so intensely.

I'm not hating anyone, not even the males and females who have yet to be born.

No, but I have no doubt that it does happen in those states that allow it.

late term abortion is not done for anything but medical reasons, in order to get one several docs have to sign off on it. a woman does not walk in in the 7th, 8th or 9th month, suddenly change her mind about being pregnant and get to have an abortion

So what do you want? Do you want to ban all late term abortions?

Do you want women to die because they are not allowed to abort in the third trimenter?

The question asked, if one can be moral and support abortion, is a question easily answered.

Yes, one CAN be moral and support abortion.

How?

Morality is relative. Myself, I don't see anything immoral regarding casual sex. Others find it extremely immoral.

Hence, relative morality.

The trick comes with "who's morality is correct", which, there is no right answer.

My stance on abortion? I have the wrong set of genitals to say that a woman can't have one, therefore I support pro-choice completely.
